Jamf is powerful — but it comes with enterprise pricing, vendor lock-in, and per-device cloud fees that compound as you scale. ownMDM is self-hosted, flat-rate, and built on open-source Munki.
Jamf Pro charges ~$7.17 per device per month. ownMDM uses flat-rate plans — the more devices you manage, the more you save.
* Jamf Pro pricing based on published list price of $7.17/device/month. ownMDM Business plan at $79/mo, Enterprise at $199/mo.
Jamf is a SaaS cloud platform — your device inventory, user data, and app telemetry live on Jamf's servers. ownMDM is self-hosted: run it on your own hardware or VPS, and your data never leaves.
Jamf bills per device, every month. A fleet of 200 Macs costs $1,434/mo on Jamf. The same fleet on ownMDM is $199/mo — an 86% reduction. Predictable costs as you grow.
ownMDM wraps Munki — the open-source Mac software management tool trusted by universities and enterprises for 15+ years. Jamf uses a proprietary delivery engine with vendor lock-in.
ownMDM is built multi-tenant from the ground up — manage multiple clients from a single instance with full data isolation, per-tenant branding, and independent software catalogs. Jamf has no native multi-tenant mode.
